Is there an effort toward creating a decentralized search engine for Gemini sites/capsules? The Lagrange/Amfora clients will be nice for adoption, but without a convenient way to locate sites it seems doubtful that the protocol will be widely adopted.

Seeing the name and being unfamiliar with "J"Edit, I had hopes this was an open source version of the 1982-~2018 commercial "K"Edit editor.

I've been using Kedit for some time as my daily editor, but its lack of UTF-8 support is becoming more dire by the year. Still, the IBM ISPF/Xedit roots and Rexx support make for a powerful environment. An overview of such "Eastern Orthodox" text editors is on SoftPanorama:

A fascinating account of someone productively using Kedit is included in the following article by John McPhee, of all people:
